Title: System for controlling the level of potential pollutants in a waste treatment plant
Inventor: PEGAZ DAVID
IPC: B03B13/06
Filed: 2005-03-17
Granted: 2009-06-11
Abstract: The invention is an apparatus and method for on-line sorting of waste matter, at the entrance to a waste processing plant, according to the level of specific chemicals, typically chlorine detected therein. The apparatus comprises a waste matter inlet that provides waste matter to a weighing module, preferably until a preset limit is reached. Then, this control volume of waste is introduced into a pulsed neutron material analyzer that is optimized for the determination of the content of the specific chemical in the control volume. A control means such as a computer then decides whether the level of the chemical in the waste control volume is above or below a preset threshold, and accordingly channels the waste into one or another of two channels. One of these channels accepts waste with low content of the given chemical, for introduction into the waste processing chamber. The other channel stores the waste until, for example, it may be mixed with other waste having a sufficient low content such that the overall amount of the chemical is still below the threshold value.

Title: Process for producing fermented milk and fermented milk
Inventor: HIROSHI HORIUCHI
IPC: A23C9/13
Filed: 2005-06-10
Granted: 2011-10-06
Abstract: A process for producing a fermented milk, in which fermentation is accelerated without the need to use a fermentation accelerator, etc.; and a novel fermented milk produced by the process that while having denseness and mellowness not exhibited by conventional products, possesses a hard texture not destroyed during the stage of distribution. As a result of study, it has been found that the fermentation efficiency can be enhanced by reducing the oxygen dissolved in fermented milk raw material mix at the initiation of fermentation through replacement thereof by an inert gas. Further, it has been found that fermenting in that state at ordinary temperature leads to a process for producing a fermented milk in which the fermentation time is shortened to thereby realize a productivity increase, and that fermenting at temperature lowered than the ordinary leads to a process for producing a fermented milk in which in ordinary fermentation time, there can be obtained a novel fermented milk that has dense and mellow flavor superior to those of fermented milks with mellow taste produced through conventional low temperature prolonged period fermentation and also has a hard texture not destroyed during the stage of distribution and leads to such a fermented milk produced by the process. The process and fermented milk have been completed on the basis of these findings.

Title: Grease gun
Inventor: SHEW JERRY D
IPC: F16N13/10
Filed: 2005-10-27
Granted: 2011-02-03
Abstract: A battery-powered grease gun is provided for enhancing the pressure applied to a blocked grease fitting. The grease comprises a circuit interconnecting the battery and an electric motor. The circuit includes a switch operable by a user and a thermal protector for breaking the circuit at a predetermined temperature.
